Professional Development Hour certificates?

I was just wondering if there is a way to have Bentley send certificates (via email) for viewing their learning products. We need to have 15 hours of continuing education credits per year to renew engineering licenses. Does Bentley accommodate this?  Thanks in advance!

  • Hello tmi,

    Navigate to Learn.Bentley.com, log in, then click the "view" link under the section called "My Learning History". 

    From there, you can click the "view/print certificate" icon to the right side of each course. The certificate will show how many Learning Units were earned for the course. There is also an option to email the transcript.

  • Thanks Jesse! As a follow up question, what does "8 units" of credit entail? Is there a correlation between credits on that and pdh credit hours per the required 15 needed every year? Thanks again!

  • Tom,

    "Learning Units are Bentley Institute’s equivalent to Professional Development Hours (PDHs). One hour of completed training is equal to one Learning Unit. When you complete a course, the Learning Units you have accrued will be added to your online transcript."

    Ref: "Learning Units" link at the very bottom of Learn.bentley.com, under the "Training and Learning" section:

  • Thanks Jessie! I appreciate the help.

    I am spending time looking into stormcad modelbuilder and trying to see if this is something we can use with our company. Since we do not have anything set up to do this and we do not use Inroads or any of the other options (spreadsheets listing each component in the drainage system, shape files, etc) I am not sure if that method could work for us without considerable extra work (as opposed to just drawing each one from scratch). I really need someone who can sit down with us and get us set up to see if modelbuilder is even remotely feasible. Any thoughts you can share would be great!

    Tom

    Tom,
    "Learning Units are Bentley Institute’s equivalent to Professional Development Hours (PDHs). One hour of completed training is equal to one Learning Unit. When you complete a course, the Learning Units you have accrued will be added to your online transcript."
    Ref: "Learning Units" link at the very bottom of Learn.bentley.com, under the "Training and Learning" section:
  • The value of ModelBuilder comes from the ability to import data you have already entered in a CAD/GIS drawing or a spreadsheet/database. If you are starting from scratch to design a new system, then just draw the network, preferable on a scaled background. If you don't have a scaled background drawing, then you are doing a "schematic" and you need to enter pipe lengths manually.
